Buy a Honda Odyssey mini van. They have one built in.

Oh man, that would be an expensive vacuum. At least it would be on wheels.

There is no way a 12 volt vacuum will do the job.

Regular shop vac works great. I just have to move vehicles to properly use it. I am a stickler for keeping vehicles inside...(5 car garage!)

They have this thing called an extension cord.
Works pretty good I hear. :D

I loaned one of my extension cords out once. It didn't work when I got it back, I don't think the guy filled it back up with electrons when he gave it back. Or maybe he put them in backwards.

-Joke I heard once, I've been waiting to tell it.

That's a groaner!

I just don't seem to be able to get the crevices clean that way. I have been looking for something with crevice tools with a mini motorized brush or something on the end. Maybe they aren't made.

Know what you mean, cars are made to be hard to clean. Maybe use the air compressor to blow the dirt out of the crevices, then it can vacuumed.

I once had one of Sharon's college room mates convinced she could save electricity by quickly plugging the male and female ends of an extension cord together after every use. :laughing:

The now highjacked grievance thread brought back to it's true bearing......

(57) The insistence to assign a gender to a mechanized device....almost always female. Perhaps misogynistic, but I'm not at all sure what that means.
(58) Refusal or otherwise negligent in improving ones vocabulary via the dictionary.

My grandson still brings home spelling words from school.
I remember my son diagramming sentences, but then, he was homeschooled.

That is crazy. Our teachers gave us a word list on Monday with a test on Friday, every week, 1st - 6th grade. In the lower grades we would use the words throughout the week in our writing and grammar lessons, in the later years we were on our own to learn them.

My grandkids still do this..

Grammar was more important when corrections were harder. :)
